I still don't know how Wine works and I'm a Linux advocate.

I had to test it. That is wild.

For me it all depends on how often a project changes. If it's constantly in flux, I don't bother remembering any of it because I might not be the last one who touched it. The more you try to remember everything, the more wrong you become due to the successive work of your coworkers.

I hate that it came to this, after so many Rust devs left, but all I can say is "Good."

I don't know how some people find the time to do anything but help take care of mom and the baby. I was either sleeping or helping while trying to find time for food.

This was a good blog post. I particularly appreciated the statement about the validate and parse function comparison: "Both of these functions check the same thing, but parseNonEmpty gives the caller access to the information it learned, while validateNonEmpty just throws it away."

I wish I could experience that. I wish our sci-fi fairytales of space travel were happening now. Alas, I must simply exist in a life lived better than a king of old, living longer than our ancestors, with food untasted by the billions before us, and all while I fly around in space within Eve Online while watching Star Trek. Life is great, but it's so easy to want it to be just that much better.

I'm still lost on why they're doing it.

Neovim. I tried to use it a year ago, but I felt like I was fighting it every time I just wanted to make progress on my project. VSCode doesn't get in my way. I'm going to give it another shot in a few years.

I don't know how to get everyone I know to really understand this. Every time I bring it up in conversation, the other person just puts their hands up and explains that they're powerless to address it, so it's not even worth talking about. I don't know how to respond to the apathy.

Is there an algorithm or number such that we could basically pirate data from it by saying "start digit 9,031,643,679 with length 5,345,109 is an MP4 of Shrek"? Something that we could calculate in a day or less?

It's surprising how useful ChatGpt is in these situations. Honestly, it's a great general purpose search engine.
